Apparently the Wisconsin Unemployment system was hacked. [View all]

Somebody logged into my account, filed a claim, and changed the bank account. I received a couple of things in the mail from them but I ignored them since I was working and hadn't filed a claim. The other day I tried to log in to get a copy of my W-2 and I couldn't get in. Apparently when the hack was discovered, their IT department deleted my account.

I asked if I were the only one, and they said no, there were a lot of people. Nothing was paid out from my account.

Change your passwords. Hackers are everywhere.
